Verse 1
Ab
Bbm
Ab
Ah, it ain't so easy is it?
Db
Eb
You almost lost your place.
Ab
Bbm
And perhaps you're wondering how you're
Db
Eb
going to cope with your disgrace.
Ab
Bbm
Well your wealth is well established and
Db
Eb
your friends were never few,
And all the things they told you of
Ab
you're finding to be true.
Bbm
Well if truth can free the guilty
Db
Eb
while the innocent must die,
Ab
Bbm
Then I respect, respect,
Db
Eb
Ab
respect the coldest lie.
Verse 2
Ab
Bbm
Ab
And you talk of human justice while
Db
Eb
you drive on fancy wheels.
Ab
Bbm
An d you push them to their limit
Db
Eb
just to see how nice it feels.
Ab
Bbm
Well it doesn't really matter
Db
Eb
if she's living or she's dead,
You just drive away forgetting that
Ab
your bumper's dipped in red.
Bbm
Well if that's the kind of justice
Db
Eb
that our hall of justice claims,
Ab
Bbm
Then I respect, respect,
Db
Eb
Ab
respect old Jesse James.
Verse 3
Bbm
Ab
And most cordially they caught you
Db
Eb
and they asked you to obey.
Ab
Bbm
And they threw you into pris on,
Db
Eb
just in case you could not pay.
Ab
Bbm
Well King Arthur jousted Lancelot,
Db
Eb
who stole away his wife;
And your lawyers jousted with the
Ab
court to save your precious life.
Bbm
Well if living is what matters though
Db
Eb
you lie with every breath,
Ab
Bbm
Then I respect, respect,
Db
Eb

the ones we put to death.

Ab
Bbm
Ab
And you won your case most easily
Db
Eb
and soon you will be free.
Ab
Bbm
But there will be a million more
Db
Eb
who lose their liberty.
Ab
Bbm
Not because of what they did,
Db
Eb
but what they did not do:
They did not pay a lawyer or
Ab
a judge to see them through.
Bbm
Why, they had no friends to call on
Db
Eb
and they could not raise their bail.
Ab
Bbm
Well if winning is what matters,
Db
Eb
Ab
I respect the ones who fail
